Author: Matthew Arnold, 1822-1888 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #88 (1993) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Calm soul of all things, make it mine Lyrics: 1 Calm soul of all things, make it mine
to feel, amid the city’s jar,
that there abides a peace of thine
I did not make, and cannot mar.
2 The will to neither strive nor cry,
the power to feel with others, give.
Calm, calm me more; nor let me die
before I have begun to live. Topics: Transcending Mystery and Wonder Meditation and Mystical Songs; The City; Serenity Languages: English Tune Title: TALLIS' CANON
